The a_createonly argument to File::File fails due to bad arguments to
open() in File.cc--- O_EXCL needs O_CREAT as well.  Fix by either converting
File.cc:94 to---

  sa_createonly = O_CREAT|O_EXCL

or File.cc:112 to---

  case a_createonly:  return arg | sa_create | sa_createonly;

---whichever makes best sense.

Cheers,
